Side cuts from primary log breakdown have two rounded sides (unless a profiler is used) which requires removal or “edging”. To eliminate long small pieces, Sawquip has developed chipping edgers which chip the sides to proper board width.
Sawquip’s optimized board edger utilizes two compact chipping heads suspended over an un-edged board that is transported on a high speed belt after passing through a 3-D scan zone to determine its form and optimized cutting path.
